[Verse 1] Morning buzz, coffee in my hand Thinking today would go as planned Then came the voice, smooth and slow Reviewing things we already know They talked and talked, time slipped away Words just drifting, wasting the day Time's running out, hopes run thin Will we ever get to dig in [Pre-Chorus] They repeat and pause, the long-winded spiel Stretching it out, it’s all surreal Silent seething, behind polite eyes We nod along, with muted sighs [Chorus] They’re the kings and queens of delay Turning minutes into hours every day No rush, no haste, just endless loops Is it a meeting or talking soup? We’ve got ideas ready to fly But the words are running dry [Verse 2] Each word lands like molasses flows A story stretched, a tale we know Nods and smiles, we all pretend Waiting for that winding end Then they go back to where they began Every detail retold, no one takes a stand They mean well, but they go astray They don't stop for breath, can't find the way [Pre-Chorus] They draw the map, without the path Talking in circles, it’s hard not to laugh They carry on, they never rest Leaving us tangled in meeting mess [Chorus] They’re the kings and queens of delay Turning minutes into hours every day No rush, no haste, just endless loops Is it a meeting or talking soup? We’ve got ideas ready to fly But the words are running dry [Bridge] Unaware, most of the time But talking on is their greatest crime Strategic moves, or just the norm We weather each long verbal storm [Instrumental Break: sick beats] [Chorus] They’re the kings and queens of delay Turning minutes into hours every day No rush, no haste, just endless loops Is it a meeting or talking soup? We’ve got ideas ready to fly But the words are running dry [Instrumental Break] [Outro] Tomorrow’s meeting, déjà vu Coffee’s ready, we know what they’ll do Long talks, no end, same old play We’ll smile and nod, what else can we say [Instrumental fade out] But deep down we all know the score Once they start, it's an hour or more So we sit, we sigh, we make it through Waiting for our turn, someday soon
